Topic: ID: 2x Kerosene lamps w/fish on base. (Read 545 times)

My second ID post , I Really like the style of these 2 beautiful oil lamps. They stand around 25cm tall without the chimneys, feature a Fish around the base. I have these 2 right now But have seen them in a Forest Green + Flint, Can anyone tell me there origins?

It wouldn't surprise me if it's 1950-60s vintage. Mine's dirty but doesn't have much wear on it. I picked it up for 50p at a jumble sale last year, so £50 for one is pretty expensive.I remember my parents buying a brand new pressed glass kerosene lamp when we were on holiday back in the 70s, although I can't remember the design on it now, but it was probably a copy of an old Victorian one. I think they were coming over from Eastern Europe at the time.
